[MacDV] iMovie 3

[Kevin Ledgister]

I downloaded iMovie 3 and like so many on Apple's discussion board - it 
is dog slow!  It launches okay but then becomes unbearable after that.

I have a 19 minute video that worked fine on my 400 MHz iMac from an 
external drive and now it won't play smoothly on my freshly initialized 
and rebuilt internal primary drive.  It's choppy, takes 5 to 10 seconds 
just to start playing and iMovie 2 worked fine just minutes before.

I waited for so long for iMovie 3 and from a functional standpoint, it 
has a lot of things I have wanted for a while but I'm going back to 
iMovie 2 until Apple resolves this.  Since they don't seem to have such 
problems with FCP or FCE like this, I'm assuming that it's a bug or 
something that they will quickly fix.

Let your voice be heard on Apple's discussion forum so we can get some 
resolve to this.
